tnProvType

Module: TN-PROV-MIB

OID (symbolic): TN-PROV-MIB::tnProvType

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.868.2.5.110.1.1.1.1.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: Provision operation type: backup/download(1) : backup/download the configuration of the device. restore/upload(2) : restore/upload the configuration onto the device. saveStartupConfig(3) : copies running-config to startup-config, thereby ensuring that the currently active configuration will be used at the next reboot. activate(4) : It is possible to activate any of the configuration files present on the switch, except for running-config which represents the currently active configuration. delete(5) : It is possible to delete any of the writable files stored in flash, including startup-config. If this is done and the switch is rebooted without a prior Save operation, this effectively resets the switch to default configuration. running-config and default-config cannot be deleted.

What is tnProvType?

This integer selects which provisioning operation to perform against the device: backup/download(1), restore/upload(2), saveStartupConfig(3), activate(4), or delete(5). An admin sets this before triggering tnProvOper, and the meaning of the accompanying file-name objects changes depending on which operation is chosen, since activate(4) can bring any stored config file live except running-config. For example, setting this to delete(5) and then triggering the operation removes a specified flash file, which if done without a prior save can reset the switch to its default configuration on next reboot.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.868.2.5.110.1.1.1.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> TN-PROV-MIB::tnProvType

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.868.2.5.110.1.1.1.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> TN-PROV-MIB::tnProvType.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.868.2.5.110.1.1.1.1.1.1 i <value>

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> tnProvType.1
